Trevini has always featured various Italian cuisine-inspired seafood dishes — from crab panzanella to the restaurant’s locally acclaimed lemon sole Francese — but on Wednesdays, the spotlight is now on lobster.

Last week, Trevini, 290 Sunset Ave., began offering, in addition to its regular menus, Maine lobster dinner specials on Wednesdays.

Different Maine lobster preparations, some involving house-made pasta, are priced at $28 each.

"Everyone loves lobster," says Trevini’s co-owner Gianni Minervini. "Our first lobster night was great — a lot of people ordered lobster dishes — and I don’t think many guests even knew yet that we had started the lobster nights."

Wednesday lobster specials at Trevini include, among others, lobster oreganata, with a split Maine lobster served in its shell with a light oregano-accented breadcrump topping; and lobster fra diavolo, with Maine lobster meat served with pasta and a mildly spicy red sauce with basil.

Guests also can order Maine lobster boiled, steamed or broiled and served with drawn butter and lemon.

"Depending on how you like it, we can do the lobster in many ways," says Minervini.

Each lobster dish on Wednesdays at Trevini is served with the tail and claw meat from a 1 ¼ pound Maine lobster.
